Timberland like any like any other brand has become more fashion than function thanks to celebs making the boots popular. Thankfully, Timberland still makes something that is functional in the real world!! Staying true to their roots. The Timberland Pro Boondock 6" boot are amazing! The boots feature a composite safety toe, electrical hazard protection, completely waterproof, and 400 grams of insulation. I purchased the boots during the long cold harsh winter. The boots feel hefty but very solid! Upon wearing them, you can sense the anti-fatigue cushioning and the boots don't feel as heavy. From other reviews, there is a break in period (at least I hope so) because there is a slight discomfort/rubbing on the left side around rear of the ankle. I think over time the boots will feel better.
I originally purchased the Timberland Pro Boondock 6" Non-insulated in a size 7.5 because a local department store was closing the priced seemed right. 7.5 was not bad, however I felt that my toes would curl or push too much against the toe cap when walking. i decided to purchase the insulated version in my normal size 8. Feels slightly larger but plenty of space now!! More room for boot socks!
I have tried boots made by Wolverine, Skechers, Carharrt, etc. Some of the boots did not last long at all! While others became useless after the outsole started deteriorating. Timberland was never my first choice, because I felt they were overpriced. In hind sight, I hope the Boondock prove me wrong! The boots look great with the pebbled leather and protective toe cap and plastic lining around the ankle. I did apply SNO-SEAL to the boots to protect the leather. That is something I have been using for years.
Edit:
Its been a couple of weeks, winter has started! The tread on the boots is great in snowy conditions, wore the boots while snow blowing the drive way. The insulation keeps your feet cozy, even with thinner socks. The rubbing went away and the boots are comfortable.
I went for a winter hike on a sunny but very cold day. The boots kept my feet warm! However, i ended up slipping in a creek and the boots got soaked! I had two pairs of socks on, while I could feel water sloshing around, my feet did not freeze and stayed comfortable. The hike was only a mile but I have to believe that the insulation really helped.

However I do want to point out a few things about this particular model in Timberland.... First off, these shoes will look on someone at least 5' 10'' tall and has a large posture, due to the size and width of these shoes. Because of the amazing thick insulation inside the boots, the front portion along with the sides is very bulky, as I said a BIG Guy can pull of these boots.. Now for their size and width, they are very lightweight. They are not heavy at all, they do feel comfortable to walk in.. But as I said, they will not look on someone that is 5'6'' 170 lbs,...
When these shoes arrived in the mail, I immediately tried on them on, but because of the width and the look of these boots, I was very disappointed. I contacted the seller and exchanged it with the NON INSULATED Model in the same exact style... I love the look and the feel of these Premium quality boots, but not the oversized model which is INSULATED...
Other than that, do not hesitate to buy these. Gave it 4 star because they weren't appropriate for me. Otherwise deserves a *****

I have been shopping on Amazon for many years now and I am very satisfied with the service (98% of the Time, their may be an exception if something is being delivered from overseas) ..... This is one of the very few times I write a review. I don't want anyone else who is willing to pay $185 for these shoes, but in turn being disappointed.. Hold your horses.... I didn't say they were bad... They are very well made and do feel that they are worth every penny..Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2015
